This document provides instructions for constructing Venn diagrams to represent set operations using paper, pencils, and other materials. It explains that circles A and B will be drawn inside rectangles representing a universal set U to demonstrate set operations like union, intersection, and complement. Figures 3.1 through 3.10 are referenced as illustrating specific set operations like A union B, A intersect B, the complement of A, and an empty intersection.

OBJECTIVE MATERIAL REQUIRED


To represent set theoretic operations Hardboard, white thick sheets of
using Venn diagrams. paper, pencils, colours, scissors,
adhesive.

METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION
1. Cut rectangular strips from a sheet of paper and paste them on a hardboard.
Write the symbol U in the left/right top corner of each rectangle.
2. Draw circles A and B inside each of the rectangular strips and shade/colour
different portions as shown in Fig. 3.1 to Fig. 3.10.

DEMONSTRATION
1. U denotes the universal set represented by the rectangle.
2. Circles A and B represent the subsets of the universal set U as shown in the
figures 3.1 to 3.10.
3. A′ denote the complement of the set A, and B′ denote the complement of
the set B as shown in the Fig. 3.3 and Fig. 3.4.
4. Coloured portion in Fig. 3.1. represents A ∪ B.
